Fall Check-ins & Thanksgiving Break
Greetings alum,
It may feel like winter, but we are still wrapping up Fall check-ins. If you haven’t already, please take a minute to quick complete my “Mid-Year Review” survey, my goal is 50% of active alumni and I would love to beat that goal before the end of the semester.
Also if you need help with FAFSA/financial aid, I suggest that you sign up for a time to meet with me. Remember that FAFSA renewals switched from January to October so it is not too late to file, but I recommend finishing before December 31st.
I wish all of you and your families a safe holiday season and remember that I am here to assist if you need it.

The Great Lakes Foundation is working with some local school to provide college students with a case by case “emergency fund” to help students who are in a financial bind. This can’t help with tuition, but if you are at a point where you are deciding between books or food, this fund is for you. Read more here…
